Re: 3rd and 4th gear are not engaging + weird smell

I suspect you have a failed transmission. its very unfortunate but it happens with these cars. In Europe you have the VTD transmissions but there are a few of the ACT transmissions so first you need to determine which you have. If you have the VTD a stock replacement if it can be found is usually ok if you just want to drive it reasonably.

If you can find one a 4.44 geared VTD would make a good upgrade. Or Manual swap if that is an option for you.

If you have one of the ACT transmissions (like we got in the United States) find a 4.44 geared trans don't even bother with the stock replacement.
